I think that FP Journe and A. Lange & Söhne are the modern "holy duality"
Amen to that
And maybe JLC for the trinity?
@@jakobberner1765 yeah, I think they should be included too!
@@hans.lankamp people nowadays bash on on the shelves movements. The only thing is it's almost always eta. I wouldn't mind have a nice timepiece with a jlc movement for example.
@@mathieuvaillancourt3219 yeah, I just think brands should stick to their core, either design-oriented or watch-oriented. I have no problem with design-oriented brands like cartier, but I would like them to stick to their principles
FP Journe and A. Lange &Söhne are my holy grial brands and my dream to achieve one day. Great review as usual !!
I agree.
Same
I agree with this comment 100p
Same here, 1 day soon :)
Your video scripts are pure poetry - a pleasure to listen to and a reminder of the joys of good spoken English.
Well spoken
Pure poetry might be a little excessive
no doubt
I love that he/they took my or someone else's advice and actually show the other watches they refer to (besides the one that's the star of the video).
To me it was always the fact that they didn't do it that made these videos so unique to me. But i guess it can be very annoying for most people. So i think its an improvment
he/they. How far PC culture has come
@@lool12366 we don't know if these videos are produced by the host alone. Maybe there is a small team behind it
@@s0mar885 Oh dear God! There's no way one person could produce all that. At least, there's a writer, a narrator and at least two people producing the video art. Don't you think?
I've produced my own YT videos, albeit at a much lower grade, and I quickly learned it takes at least an hour to produce each minute of video.
I saw FP Journe's Bleu yesterday and after looking at the rest of their pieces they are now my favourite brand
So happy to see that you are reviewing watch nerds Grail Watches. Would you please do one on Urban Jürgensen and Czapek. Thank you.
Or AkriviA
I like both of those brands. Their movements on the back side do more for me than the watch itself, nice sleepers.
FP Journe, A Lange, and JLC is the true holy trinity.
Full Agree !
Check my videos..I’ve owned all 3. For me, JLC isn’t quite the same league in terms of finishing. My FPJ was amazing, but the Lange edges it for me. It’s absolute perfection.
What about Breguet
pejpm in my mind while Lange and Journe are in a different league for finishing, I think it deserves a spot beside the two for ingenuity and innovation.
Vacheron constantine, patek philippe... Anyone know what is the other one?
Materials, calibres, design, esthetics, execution... FP Journe ! In a class of its own !
Thanks for that video on FP Journe. FP Journe and A Lange are (to me) the best luxury watchmakers
Journe and breguet are my personal faves and with every good reason! Robust automatic timepieces!
Here is...the David Attenborough of watches.
FP Journe is one of those watch brands that nothing negative is to say about. And what's impressive is that they don't have a decade of history to offer yet. So who knows what they'll become in the many years to come.
Yes the finishing of the movement
The story telling and writing were fantastic. Great video!
Nothing beats F.P. Journe - he makes the best watches, and that's it.
I like a lot of this watch, but the off-center date window is really not to my taste I think. It's definitely at its strongest when flipped onto its front so you can see that lovely movement ^_^
Demonaxis that date window ruins the whole watch for me.
Exactly
Also, that's a really great philosophy in general. Everyone talks about the old masters and how everything now is terrible, but if you know how to look for it, whether it's music, watches, books, art, there is always absolutely amazing things being created. The only difference is that in the old stuff, people only remember the best.
I like how the numbers 3,4,8,9,and 10 have been shrunk instead of being cut off- nice touch.
The Wristwatch Experience I like that a lot.
Apart from Dufour, FP Journe is one of the living legends of watchmaking. I hope he sticks around for some more decades
Love the tear drop hands, very unique and classy!
FPJ is my favorite watch brand after learning about them in a review i read on them in the WSJ prob 10 years ago and then just deep diving into them . simply beautiful
My god. What a beauty...
Beautiful watch but the day window could be under the 12. Watchfinder & co. superb videos and the voice perfect. Thanks a lot
.... but nothing can match the exceptional craftsmanship of A. Langa
Clearly an impressive movement but not really a fan of the dial particularly the numbers. But beauty comes in all shapes and sizes even if not to your particular taste
Funny....that is why I love them because of their legibility
A Francois Paul Journe watch IS my grail! I love the simplicity and dynamic dial of the Chronometre Bleu 😍😍😍
Hi please do review for rolex datejust 41slate dail green roman numerals refrence 126300
Idea for your next video: Most interesting crowns in the industry. :)
Love me some fp journe but would go a Lange and sohne first because of heritage
Sure thing still would choose Lange first despite really liking fp
@Marshmallow Fisticuffs true but almost all brands needed help in one form or another , movement sharing , movement modification to call there own, buying of parts or a movement company , truly in house manufacturers are basically non existent. ALS have the pedigree (even though it got mixed up for a while ) but the knowhow was technically unbroken because it was passed on and now Glasshute has a school to make sure these techniques and skill would not be lost (which can be said with almost all ) .
F.P Journe vs A.lange.
Who wins?
The guy who owns them
nothing beats lange. not even pp.
@@jigrodrigues 😂😂😂
There is something about this watch I really like above A. Lange. It is the playfulness, it is tickling my senses. Tough one though.
They both belong to the upper stratosphere, tho Lange represents clinical functionality and crispness with that appealing teutonic identity, while F. P. Journe is an eccentric, playful brand, which lives up to its motto, invenit et fecit. Lange for me, but it is really up to personal taste. Both phenomenal.
Not properly finished Palet fork 3:57 is the biggest disappointed for me killed the whole vibe, u never expected to see that on a watch that costs a fortune
I really appreciate the videos that you make .. as a watch enthusiast, I'll never be able to afford some of these lovely time pieces..yet .. they're inspirational.
Very nice dial, but because the numbers all face to the center , the 4, 6, 7 & 8 are upside down, while the 3 & 9 are lying up their side...
What a wonderful example of skill combined with the ultimate good taste.
The wonderful use of gold inside the case! No pretentiousness by an awful, display of it; confusing this masterpiece with --jewelry --.
I was concerned with the use of 22kt gold as, to its softness; only to be instantly put at ease--by --the use of 18kt ,for the parts requiring more strength. A truly, breathtaking timepiece, that can be worn, with humility: utterly beautiful. Such a piece makes me feel: the soul of creativity is far from extinguished .
Maybe it is not premium watch but surely very fresh brand too Raymond Weil. I'm lovinig it.
That 9 @ the 6 throws me off.
Some daring statements, to say the least. Admittedly technically advanced, the brand produces its share of esthetically dubious concoctions (Linesport anyone?). As long as that happens comparing the brand to A. Lange & Söhne is farfetched. The featured watch is excellent as is the video though.
Can you do a video on the Rolex 1630 please. I have one that my father bought me when I was born in 1976. I've had it my whole life! It seems that no one knows anything about them. Even the Rolex dealers and experts in my city thought it was an oyster quartz that had the movement replaced. Of course the center links on the bracelet tell the truth....lol Thank you. And love your videos the most!!
firmly believe its the most upper echelon of finest watch design and craftsmanship plus the most unique dial layout designs
This FP Journe is beautiful. But I just cannot get over the shape of their hands
Its so distinctly Journe though that it would be like saying you like Rolex but hate the Rolex coronet logo.
This video was outstanding. They all are, but this one was done particularly well, very nice work.
I love this video. Amazing quality and one of my absolute favorite watches. The close ups are great and same with the narration. Thanks for posting
One of my true Grails!!
WHEN I win the lottery one of his watches is mine, the Centigraph
I think the centagraph is one of the undervalued watches of today. Like the Richard Mille 003 & 002. Look at what the bleu has done in the last 4-5 years. Centagraph is a great watch.
The crown is like 1 mm off from horizontal axis?! Am I right? I am not sure but it's irritating. 4:36
Thought exactly the same
It's set off-axis like a real rope to give your finger and thumb better purchase on the very thin crown in case your fingers are a bit slippery from hand oils and the like. Gives it a bit more surface area to grip. ( you'll note it IS a very thin crown...)
using gold for the manipulate and bridges is very cool and different but considering that gold is soft it's impractical and very flashy, if you adjust the jewels it wears out much faster
Remarkable that the narrator somehow managed to completely omit any mention of the unevenly sized numerals on the dial. Surely as polarising a feature as any other, if not even more so.
Well done.
I enjoy the information about this art.
The correct holy Trinity is PP, ALS, and FP Journe
Please more Journe videos!
If I have bought a Lange, it’s hard to choose the next one between FPJ and Patek... should be FPJ at the end.
Excellent video, and as great choice. Cheers!
Gorgeous looking watch. Outstanding really!
4:33 HOW ON EARTH is the Limunor an iconic design? If it didn't have the brand name, it looks like any cheap digital watch with radium "glow in the dark" numbers
It's iconic because now that it exists you could recognize it at first glance even if you removed the brand, but it's certainly not the most impressive design
It would be a beautiful watch if...the numbers on the dial were of the same size. As it is, the dial is highly disappointing.
Make a video on Arnold & Son please. Just as next-level as Francois Paul Journe!
yes! And some history behind it! I feel like it deserves more attention
it was already. arnold with moon phase. one of the best moon in the watch world.
First of all, thank you for your videos. It is a pleasure to watch them, even if it is about some piece that do not interests me. Could you make some about Stowa, one of the original producers of pilot watches?
I like the FP Journe gold rotor and gold movement.
How come that the watch is losing its value on the pre-owned market? Gold movement, gold rotor, gold dial, platinum case + all the complications, but still almost 10k under retail? With only 800 pieces a year I would expect all FPJs to hold or gain.
The watch is incredible!
"Graceful and unforced" great summary
Enjoying your videos. Learning about watched besides Rolex. Please keep them coming. Anyone suggest a new watch for me? Currently have a ss Daytona as my daily driver. What else is out there?
I really enjoy the reviews on this channel. I would love to see one of the JLC Reverso Classic Duoface small seconds.
Okay. I do not really trust anything claiming mechanical rubustness made out of gold, just for being a precious beautiful metal. It's a masterpiece no doubt, but for me, more for the sake of art of goldsmithing than for the sake of watchmaking. This channel is awesome, and I would die not knowing this kind of stuff without it.
F.P. will always be one of my grail choices but i do agree. Have a high horology (not independent) watch that stopped on me and after a few months, good thing it was still under warranty. I belive if you go down this road the less complications the better as the first things watch makers do is the base movement which should be the most efficient and robust while added complications are basically an afterthought and added to that basic design .
This is very true. I think FP jorn is probably the one brand who if I saw a brand new watch produced by them, that I had never seen before, I would be able to immediately recognized it was then. And I have
Best part of Friday!
Very nice video, thanks for sharing!
THIS IS MY FAVORITE WATCH EVER, CASE AND MOVEMENT ARE MANUFACTURED IN 18K SOLID GOLD AND ROTORS ARE MADE IN 22K
What is the accuracy of the moonphase? Can someone help me please
Moonphases are usually a dual sided wheel, the most common moonphase display system is based on a 59-tooth driving wheel. This system requires a manual correction roughly once every two-and-a-half years., although some manufacturers are striving for more accuracy. not exactly sure on the F P Journe, but as it's a very modern manufacturer, I'd guess better accuracy than that. A 135 tooth wheel is good for 122 years.
@@scottcrawford3745 thank you Mr. Crawford for the amaizing help
If I ever get the money together, I'm getting one of these... awesome vid, as alway!
The position of the date window & second dial though :-( I have a thing for symmetry & alignment...
You can take numbers off to be replaced with markers?
The BIG number 1 2 and small 3, 4, and big 6, 7 and small 8, 9, 10 drives me MAD!
How is F.P able to make 800 pieces of watch per year if he is doing it all by himself, and at that level of details and workmanship? I will be surprised if he can even handle 80 pieces
Imported from China🤣
Beautiful Masterpieces! I hope that one day I can be a proud owner. Great review, thank you!
Great educational vid on a brand I really didn't know that much about. 😊
The biggest appeal in this brand is that comparing to other high end makers is the value for money
Now that, I like. Love the hands.
hand fetish? hihi meow
Beautiful, but it’s Lange for me.......
Journe, Lange and Ferrier. The new trinity.
Lovely pieces. He deserves his success
Whats with the date window though? Its off center and its bugging me.
Can someone explain why they glue the seconds subdial in the chronometre blue? It annoys me but there must be a reason, right?
The off-centered date window is bothering me more than it should.
Me too. One wonders whether it was a practical necessity, rather than a quirky aesthetic.
In my book, the holy trinity of watch brands are JLC, Lange, and Journe. I don't care about depreciation because I would never sell them.
My Journes are the favs of the collection!
Man a FP Journe I can’t even afford these stunning watches, but they are stunning
could you do a philippe dufour ?
Joris DONOYAN that would be awesome
Beautiful video!!!
The corner cutting with F.P. Journe watches is in the movement finishing...
Man, what a beauty! It might replace the Datograph (at a third of the price) as my divorce-causing watch.
Hopefully, she won’t get it on the settlement.
Gorgeous watch, with such an individual design, with engineering to match!
How do those who bemoan the slightest deviations from design convention reconcile the asymmetry of the FP Journe dial - or do they? If they think the addition of a simple date window at 3 o'clock ruins the symmetry of a dial, they must think the FPJ is a hot mess.
Oh my god it's Jason Journe
Just a Question do they have a Ladies watch?
1:38 looks like some kind of eye illusion. Great video as always !
Would Love to see a review of the David Candaux!
Can u review F.P Journe TOURBILLON SOUVERAIN claibre 1519 !!!!
What a pleasure to listen to. Justice? Yes.
So interesting
Excellent video.
Nice intro.. maybe an ancient engraved ring would be a good addition on the table, I could be wrong..
